Watch Idris Elba show off some really, really bad breakdancing moves on the Star Trek Beyond set

How do you get people to donate to your charity? A bevy of celebrities promoting it certainly helps — and if one of them pauses for a breakdancing interlude, all the better!

Such is the conceit of Omaze.com's newest campaign. The cast of Star Trek Beyond selected nine global organizations they hope fans will support; in exchange for a $10 donation, contributors are entered into a drawing to be flown out to the movie's set and appear in a walk-on role in the franchise's new film. To further sell the idea, the cast put together a pretty endearing video in which they pal around and make it clear that hanging out with them for a day would be $10 well spent.

But the greatest fun starts around the 1:44 mark in the video below, at which point Idris Elba shows up and throws down some absolutely awful breakdancing moves. Better stick with acting, Idris. Sarah Eberspacher
